Dear All

Just confirming that we shall proceed with the NEW Tuesday evening swim session at Claremont Pool, every Tuesday, from 7-8pm, starting Tuesday 27th January and running up to the Busselton Half Ironman on the 2nd May. This will be a steady aerobic session focussing on technique (similar to Tuesday early mornings). We have the following 15 people having registered their names:

Deb Meyerhofer

Gabe Alves

Helen Cuthbert

Helen Masson

Karlee Cannon

Mark McNally

Matt Illingworth

If your name is not on that list but you'd like it to be, we will now open up the 9 remaining spots to anyone who wishes to register, irrespective of if they are training for the Half Ironman or not. Please let me know ASAP.

FRIDAY NIGHT NUTRITION CHAT:

All Rottnest swimmers from the squad who would like to attend a social gathering to discuss and share nutrition tactics / experiences for the Big Day on the 21st February are welcome to attend our little soiree on Friday 23rd January at 6pm at 11 Hammersley Road, Cottesloe. Please bring your own drinks and maybe a plate of nibbles. We'll discuss tactics and formulate a plan which can also be used on Sunday at the Rotto Rehearsal Swim for practice. We may then venture down the road for some supper at ~7pm. Thanks to Emmy for offering her place for this occasion! RSVP to paul@swimsmooth.com

Finis Swimsense Performance Monitor

The Finis Swimsense is a great tool for the un-coached athlete. Log your stroke rate, stroke length and time split for every lap you swim. Analyse all the data at home afterwards on the included software or using training peaks.
We also sell the Finis Swimp3 - by far the best waterproof MP3 player on the market.
Worldwide free shipping on both the Swimp3 and Swimsense!
